Detectives are trying to trace where Christian Jackson got the shotgun he allegedly pointed at officers. They are also enhancing the police video shot at the scene. At a Monday afternoon news conference police detailed the chronology of events leading up to the shooting on Fairbanks Avenue, near Warsaw, after midnight. Chronology of events: A woman called 9-1-1 and reported her former boyfriend had broken in and stolen a radio. Police located the suspect, Christian Jackson, and he warned them to stay away. Jackson pointed a shotgun at Officers Jason Bolte and James Davis. They fired 11 shots and hit Jackson twice. Jackson ran away and they arrested him one house from his former girlfriend who had earlier called police. Jackson is hospitalized in critical condition. Officers Bolte and Davis, as standard procedure, are on administrative leave for seven days.

At about 6:45 p.m. Sunday officers went to 379 Rosemont Avenue in West Price Hill for a report of shots fired. That's where they found 37-year old Christopher Mitchell with a gun to his head. Reportedly he had threatened suicide earlier in the day and pulled the trigger of another gun he held to his head, but it didn't go off. Friends say he had a history of depression and substance abuse. When he refused to put his gun down, officers, as recorded by a body camera, fired both a shotgun and 9 mm handgun which killed him. "We never want to see an incident end this way,'' Cincinnati City Manager Harry Black said in a news conference. "Sometimes though, it is unavoidable. My sympathies go out to the victim's family and the officers during the very, very tough time." Police Sgt.

The situation started with a 911 call from a mental health care provider. The caller requested officers respond to Clifton and Ludlow Avenues for a person with mental health issues who had a gun. Interim Police Chief Paul Humphries said 5 officers eventually encountered 32-year-old Roger Ramundo on the back deck of Arlin's Bar and Restaurant on Ludlow near Clifton. He said they tried to calm him down, but he became combative and it became a violent struggle. Humphries said during the fight, Ramundo fired his gun once and Police Officer Bryan Gabel ended the situation with two gun shots. “These officers did everything humanly possible to not have to go to deadly force,” Humphries said. “It’s very unfortunate, but the actions of Mr. Ramundo dictated the officers actions.
